It's less work to put a proper boot on over a stretch boot given that it is possible to do without removing the outer CV from the hub upright. I've not seen these open wrap around and seal boots that this thread is about though, it sounds like a total bodge waste of time though.

You can change the outer CV boot without removing the CV from the upright anyway. Details on the forum somewhere.

Yes

I never knew they had passenger air bags in 98 ?

I think you've exhausted your options, MOT history check is probably the most informative. I thought you had a K11 rather than a K10?

Yes all K11's are multipoint fuel injected.

Having seen tests done with Waxoyl I've gone right off it, Bilt Hamber stuff works much better. https://www.bilthamber.com/corrosion-protection-and-rust-treatments/

There comes time when age means the price starts to go up. Did a quote for my Dad who is older by more than 10 years and it was nearly 4 times your premium.

You'll be telling me you can buy cars without a gear stick next :eek:

The engine number is on a flat bit at the front of the engine on the right where it meets the gearbox, so CG 10 or 13

Oh I never knew they did that :oops: I just use my arm to change gear :p

Hello there, yes its a bit quite here these days. A set of Kilen springs will improve the handling a lot. I spot a 1.3 badge on the wing :confused: ?
